Two Sea Scouts from Mariners 936 of Dana Point recently were promoted to Quartermaster, Sea Scouting’s highest honor.

Annemarie Kibbe of Laguna Niguel and Joshua Johnson of San Clemente received the award upon completing community service projects.

Kibbe built trophy shelves for Aliso Niguel High School’s band room. Kibbe will attend the honors program at Colorado State University to study engineering and plans to become involved in Engineers Without Borders.

Johnson built a fence, gates and rabbit fencing for the teaching garden at Concordia Elementary School. Johnson has now attained all of scouting’s highest ranks and awards: Eagle, Venturing Silver Award and Quartermaster; less than 10 people in the Orange County Council have attained all of the highest ranks. Johnson is the first to do so in the El Camino Real district, which includes San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano and Dana Point. He has also earned the Venturing Ranger Award, National Outdoor Achievement Medal, Eagle Silver Palm and been recognized with Vigil Honor in the Order of the Arrow and is a recipient of the Venturing Leadership Award. Johnson will attend California Maritime Academy this fall and plans to major in mariner transportation.
